Services

All Clinical Supervisors and Independent Assessment Providers are Qualified Intellectual Disability Professionals (QIDP) in accordance with the Federal Medicaid qualifications. The ICDE staff is distributed in each of the seven Health and Welfare Regions in the state of Idaho.

Independent Assessment Providers (IAP's) conduct assessments with the child and adult participants by reviewing all assessment information and documentation and then determining each participant's eligibility for community services. All assessments follow Medicaid Rule, policies and procedures.

Additionally, Clinical Supervisors supervise the assessment process. They oversee the Independent Assessment Provider's, provide technical and clinical expertise and advice and manage the staff workload to assure fidelity statewide and timely completion of reports. They consult and partner with the Department of Health and Welfare Central Office staff to provide feedback as to the assessment process. Clinical Supervisors also conduct assessments as needed.
